If Richie's officially out of the band the sole reason I will hang around here for will be trolling purposes, thank you very much. :D

Salaam Aleikum,

So basically nothing is going to change from the Seb before to the Seb now.

I didn't think that you were such a huge Richie fan that now its all over. Don't get me wrong, I know you hate Jon and everything Bon Jovi but I never got the impression that once Richie was out of the band, its all over for you. Not the shit CD's, the crappy setlists or pissy Jon.

I think his talking about the statement regarding South Africa and Europe.

That's not the "entire tour".

Exactly - it's not nice to gloat (and I don't even feel like gloating) - but all of us - Americans and Europeans are missing out on Richie. I have seen several shows with Phil X and enjoyed the shows immensely. So if my NMS shows are Richieless they will still be some damn fine shows during the summer here in Jersey.

My apologies to you and Beaky if my previous comment came off as gloating. I was trying to convey that I knew exactly what Europeans are going through right now: being crushed at the news, feeling anger, wanting not to go to the concert, wanting sympathy, etc. I do sympathize because I've been in your shoes. I don't think you (or I) are getting what you (or us) deserve. We can be united in that opinion.

I decided to go to the show mostly because I would be out way too much money; I did enjoy it but still think I missed some of the magic with the absence of Richie. Given the history of Jovi shows in Europe which obviously are better than American shows, you have a right to feel a real loss.

Anyone else think part of Jon's motivation to continue pushing through with this tour is in hopes of grabbing a Rock & Roll Hall of Fame nomination on their 30th anniversary?

To him it might be the entire tour, seeing that he is from Europe and those shows affect him. I shouldn't even be answering for the guy, for all I know, he might have heard something different.

In a previous post, I said that the shows in Australia and Japen might be in doubt. I don't think so anymore. Runaway Tours just put up a picture of a Koala bear. I take that as a sign that the next fanclub trip is in Australia.

Bring on the mass of people who will claim over and over again that they will sell their tickets, and still end up going to the store.

But yeah, this really blows. I was skeptical to the "Richie's out of the band" scenario, but now it seems much more feasible.

I feel glad that the likes of Kathleen, Terri, and Erik went to Europe LAST tour. :D
